Pricilla-1-1-1799-J.M.'s daughter +David Nugen Sarah-i have a date of c-1770 but that can't be right.If she is a daughter then it would be-M.E.'s daughter +George Blake Fountain-J.M.'s son ?? +John Nugen James(???)

Hi,Carol: A quick hit here before I head out the door: A current line of thought is that John Jenkins m. Mary Elizabeth Huddleston in Bedford Co., VA. After Mary Elizabeth died, he married Jane McGeorge. William h2 did have a daughter called "Polly". Polly, as we know, was often a nickname for Mary. However, "Polly"'s data says she was born 1778, died in 1855, unmarried, and that she went to Oregon Co., Missouri. Given that Mary Elizabeth married John Jenkins in 1778, wouldn't you think her birth would be ca1757-1762? Your family oral history is that Mary Elizabeth Huddleston was a daughter of a William III, is that correct?
